I’ve seen a few comments from Rangers fans saying they hope to see Hastie back at Ibrox soon. It’s one of the few times I’ve agreed with them...

Mark Gillespie on the bench for Newcastle tonight. Hope he manages to get a few games this season.

Whose comment was that? I’d be surprised at Alan’s commitment ever being questioned.

The commentators in the Coleraine game are going on about the financial prize of qualifying for the next round. I don’t think they’re going mental over 20k.

This is more like it. Hopefully kick-start the season.

This is embarrassing.

The deal with Celtic is probably already done and if it is Turnbull must be wondering what he’s getting into after last night. Losing to a team with a fraction of their budget, Lennon throwing players under the bus to cover his own failings and stating that some of the players don’t want to be there, rumours of poor coaching and players taking on private coaches, and a majority of Celtic fans now want Lennon sacked after another European failure. All of that along with the pressure of going for 10 in a row this season doesn’t suggest that going to Celtic is a great career choice.

Maybe Celtic will need to reconsider their signing targets with no CL money coming in.

Seems to have worked at all the clubs Hughes has been at, at similar times. I know people who played for Craigneuk Colts who McCafferty was involved with and there were always stories about him. He also stayed up the road from me in the 90’s when he did his moonlight flit to Ireland and it was well known why he went. There’s no way Hughes wouldn’t have known about the rumours.

Seem to be a few unhappy players just now. Long, Watt, Polworth and whoever else Robinson was having a go at with his playing with 7 players chat. I don’t think this will end well for Robinson.

Can you run through the chances we’ve had in the other games? Or even today would be good.

I stopped reading at “making lots of chances”.

Teams are happy to let us have the lions share of possession as they know there is virtually no chance of us doing anything with it. The substitutions were ridiculous and turned the game in Accies favour. Every substitution weakened the team.

Game changing substitutions by Robinson.

Great debut from O’Donnell. Made a huge difference to that side of the park. Lamie was much improved on the left as well. Campbell and Turnbull were quality in midfield and it was a promising performance overall.

In answer to the thread title - Struggling just now but has turned it round before.

That was poor again. Robinson better hope Callum Lang makes a difference as we look like we’re going to struggle this season.

Good goal by Campbell. Hopefully we can hold the lead and settle down a bit.

That’s absolutely embarrassing from Lamie. And he’s got the brass neck to look confused when the penalty is given.

Best part of the game.

That was awful. 2 defeats against 2 poor teams so far. The full team needs a kick up the backside.

He managed to talk Celtic into signing Virgo as his best mate was the manager.

Hastie’s loan confirmed. Season long with a recall option in January.

Seems like a reasonable explanation of the club’s position. Doesn’t sound like a bad offer.

Boyce and Walker (I think) of Hearts both had head injuries that took a few minutes each to treat.
